Crystalline 4-isopropylphenol, C9H12O, an optically non-linear material, was studied by X-ray diffraction in order to determine its structure at several temperatures in the 95–300 K range. The thermal expansion coefficients have been calculated from the lattice parameters' dependence on temperature. The rigid-body analysis of the anisotropic displacement parameters including the correlation with the internal motion of large amplitude provided the values of the molecular translation and libration tensors at the temperatures studied and was used to characterize the torsional motion of the isopropyl group. The calculated normal modes and internal torsion frequency were compared with the wave numbers at the maximum of bands in the low-frequency Raman scattering, FTIR and inelastic neutron scattering spectra.

Variable-temperature high-resolution capillary-mode powder X-ray diffraction is used to assess changes in unit-cell dimensions as a function of temperature over the range 188–328 K. No evidence was found for any polymorphic transformations over this temperature range and thermal expansion coefficients for urea were found to be αa= (5.27 ± 0.26) × 10−5 K−1and αc= (1.14 ± 0.057) × 10−5 K−1.

The crystal structure of the title compound has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction data collected at 293 K, and refined to a final Rw of 0.057. The crystals are rhombohedral, space group [Formula: see text], with a = 27.134(8) Å, c = 10.933(2) Å, and Z = 18. The mole ratio of Dianin's compound (4-p-hydroxyphenyl-2,2,4-trimethylchroman) to CCl4 is 6:1. The guest molecules are disordered. X-ray powder diffraction was carried out in the temperature range from 10 to 300 K. From this, the thermal expansion coefficients for the a- and c-axes and the volume have been determined. Keywords: thermal expansion, crystal structure, clathrate.

A new series of solid solutions Dy2-xGdxMo4O15 (x = 0.0-0.9) were prepared. These compounds all crystallize in monoclinic structure with space group P21/c. The lattice parameters a, b, c and unit cell volumes V increase almost linearly with increasing gadolinium content. The intrinsic thermal expansion coefficients of Dy2-xGdxMo4O15 (x = 0.0 and 0.25) were obtained in the temperature range of 25 to 500°C with high-temperature X-ray diffraction. The correlation between thermal expansion and crystal structure was discussed.

The crystal structures of hexakis(phenylthio)benzene (HPTB) and its CBr4 clathrate have been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction data collected at T = 18 °C and refined to final Rw of 0.036 and 0.047, respectively. Pure HPTB is triclinic, space group [Formula: see text] (No. 2), with a = 9.589(2) Å, b = 10.256(1) Å, c = 10.645(2) Å, α = 68.42(1)°, β = 76.92(2)°, γ = 65.52(1)°, and Z = 1. The CBr4 clathrate of HPTB is rhombohedral, space group [Formula: see text] (No. 148), with a = 14.327(4) Å, b = 20.666(8) Å, and Z = 3. The host–guest mole ratio of HPTB–CBr4 is 1:2. Neutron powder diffraction was carried out on powders of both compounds in the temperature range 25 K < T < 295 K. Thermal expansion coefficients were determined for HPTB and HPTB–CBr4 over this temperature range. Keywords: thermal expansion, crystal structure, clathrate.
